John added: "If we see anything unusual, we'll get it. Last week we got a set where baby Jesus was in a hammock rather than a manger."

The display in Kenilworth will be open from 2 to 5pm on the weekdays, from 10am to 5pm on the Saturday, and 12.30 to 5pm on the Sunday. Entry is free.

Although most of the exhibits are 'view only' there will be a children’s table where youngsters can handle nativities and play with Nativity Fuzzy Felts. There is also an activity sheet they can complete as they tour the exhibition.
